Maybe, when Ion gets supports for most major languages. I won't touch it now because it means to go Java for every application that reads or writes to that queue. Not because of Java, but because it's only one language. It should get on par with support for the other formats listed in the comments before one should be confident to use it.

At least the JVM supports multiple languages (Scala, Clojure etc.), but if there's a spec it shouldn't be hard for anyone to add support for other languages.
